Indian Institute of Technology Bombay

The Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay), founded in 1958 and located in Powai, Mumbai, is one of India's premier engineering and research institutions, ranked #97 in the QS World University Rankings 2025.

No unified central developer portal was found; access to several APIs is gated to IIT Bombay infrastructure.
